    Wicked Storms

    Built a foundation on a fault line Temperamental bias stirs beneath  No substance flows from the vine Every shortcut is laced with grief   When the walls tumbled down It revealed a foolish arrogance  Under that smile lives a frown A string-puppet born to dance   Rain pours from...

    • First, I hope you had a fantastic and soul-filling birthday. I have read this one 3 times now. I finish, sigh, scroll back up and read it again. It sinks into the mental marrow and stirs thoughts. You are a master of layers, my friend. I’m glad this one bubbled out of the “not yet” vault. It needed sunlight and shadows on its bones

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It was a good birthday overall, played some piano, talked to J.J. Burton, and spent time with the wife and kids. Thank you for the b-day wishes. I definitely write in layers, probably because everything I observe has layers, including myself and humans in general. I come by it naturally I guess. lol. The “not yet” section has tons of writes in it, although some need work or at the very least a tweak or two. Always enjoy your commentary my friend. Appreciate you.

    • Captivating and intriguing piece.

      You’ve got me hooked from the start. I was drawn to this by its title.

      Strong choice of words. Exquisite in its own way.

      A bold and daring read. x

    • Damian this song on mortality and the grim reaper was one of your very best. The sheer lyrical strength was formidable here. I loved every roaring line. You really made this come alive for me. I am amazed.

      • Thank so much for reading and your kind words, John. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I’m amazed after 35 summers of doing this writing thing I haven’t lost my love for the craft. I’ve had ups and downs sure, if I were to ever lose that love then I might have something to worry about. lol. Enjoyed your commentary. Appreciate you.

    It's been raining quite a bit of late, and the things that breed in brackish water have taken flight. How they find me is a mystery, perhaps some subtle gas I exude. In any case, to them I'm nothing more than tasty food. They reconnoitre the...
